Custom earplugs for swimming, sleep, music and work

Custom earplugs are made from a mould of your own ears, so they seal properly and stay comfortable for hours. We take a quick, painless ear impression, a lab makes the plugs, and you return for a fitting check. They usually last three to five years.

Custom earplugs: common questions

How long do custom earplugs last?

Usually three to five years with good care. Ear canals change slowly over time, so have the fit checked every few years, especially for work or musician plugs.

Can I use custom earplugs for swimming?

Yes. Swim plugs are designed to keep water out of the ear canal, which helps reduce the risk of swimmer's ear and infections.

Can children have custom earplugs?

Yes, they are commonly made for children for swimming and noise protection.

Are custom earplugs covered by health insurance?

Some extras policies contribute, especially where plugs are medically needed. Check with your fund.
